    Hurry! Need to know if I should lay my cash down for one now while Mrs Fiv is still in an agreeing mood

    If I get a USB adapter, will it run in FB? This is my big chance for a proper wobbler. I don't want to miss out. Time is everything.

    And now for the boobies:

    I'm running a gameport version with no problems on an XP machine. I'm not using an usb adapter, so I can't tell you if that works ok or not. The price of the usb versions seems down on ebay, if you want to go that route, though the gameport versions are really down.

    Nice boobies, I always preferred the blue-foots over the red-foots!

    Hello Feathered-IV,

    the MS Sidewinder FFB Pro Sticks with Gameport connection works
    excellent with XP and W2k.

    I have one in use.

    The USB-Adapters (none of them !!) does not work with MS Sidewinder FFBs !!!

    And it is really easy to install the MS FFB Pro stick.
    But you cannot use the Sidewinder Software with
    XP or W2k - no version of this software works
    with Gameport connectet NS FFB Pro sticks.

    It is not necessary too.

    Cheers,
    Gerhard

    I was never able to get FFB to work in XP using the gameport connector. Is there a secret to it?

    A while back I picked up a cheap set of CH rudder pedals for next to nothing-they are the same as the current model except that they have a Gameport attachment on them. If I bought a USB adapter will the Pedals work?

    Somewhat disappointed with the boobies.

    However, pm me if it's a local (aus) item. I don't want to bid against you.

    There's an extra to make up for it.
